For years I've been searching for this seemingly mythical album (flawless yet extremely rare) for years and finally coming across it feels like reaching the holy grail. Fan of Godflesh, early Napalm Death and/or Jesu? Well this is yet another one of Justin Broadricks many projects, and I must say it is without a doubt his most intriguing. Industrial/free jazz/doom? I personally have never heard of such a concoction. If you have, don't just gloat you greedy fuck, share it with me! GOD is heavy. GOD is free flowing. GOD is entrancing. GOD will smash you.
Artist: GOD
Album: The Anatomy of Addiction
Song: Voodoo Head Blows
Genre: industrial/avant-garde jazz/metal
Matt Berry has become the artist who I've been listening to at a concerning level. Is it obsessive? Quite possibly, but I'll allow it due to the sheer beauty of a classic nature his songs carry with them. They sound like they've been established in time as classic hits, but yet no one seems to know them. Do your self a favor and submerge yourself in the tuneful world of Matt Berry.
Artist: Matt Berry
Album: Kill the Wolf
Title: Medicine
Genre: progressive rock/folk/70's sound
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Today is the day that you have come across
something special. Something not from this world. Something called
NAH. Now I don't want to equate another band to Death Grips, but its
damn near impossible with NAH, considering its something unworldly
composed of technical drumming chopped and skewed, hip-hop sampling with
synth layered within. Most of the songs are instrumental but at times
he has the deep voiced GIVV to compliment his gnarly beats with
perfectly fitting rhymes of debauchery and love.
Artist: NAH
Album: CONTEMN
Title: Constant Commentary
Genre: noise/hip-hop/experimental
What would it sound like if Death Grips focused on more of a electronic, IDM style instead of hip-hop? Well, you would get Machine Girl of course! This shit will get your heart racing ready to go ape shit under the chaos of strobe lights. It basically gives you that same, bad ass vibe that Death Grips does, just through a different genre. Give it a listen, wont you?
Artist: Machine Girl
Album: WLFGRL
Songs: Out By 16, Dead on the Scene; Krystle (URL Cyber Palace Mix)
Genre: electronic/experimental/drum&bass/breakcore/hip-hop
This band needs to be shared around the world. Russia, you have some crazy motherfuckers and I love it, like your women. Where else would I be able to find DEATH SKA? I had always hoped for a band to do this ever since I heard The Flaming Tsunamis metal/hardcore/ska fusion, and the day has come where my hopes have been fulfilled. Death metal, horns, ska; need I say more?
Artist: G.G. Nonsense
Albums: Tequilla and Vodka split; Дешево
Genre: Ska/death metal/hardcore punk
Dirty, heavy fucking mathcore with a slight experimental approach to tickle your adventurous side. At times they will surprise you from their converge like sound going to deeper levels of heaviness experimenting with death growls occasionally. Give the whole album a listen to really get a feel for the band. (remember, you can always listen to the album on bandcamp and support if you've been touched by the music)
Artist - FAUS
Album - Technical Jargon and Partisan Rhetoric
Genre - mathcore/hardcore
Nobody sounded even remotely like Daughters, the late and great math/noise rock grinders of our time. They found a sound of noise rock that was absolutely perfect. Noisy, but yet technical as fuck guitar riffs utilizing techniques I can't even image, heavy instrumentation, but yet vocals that aren't just growls and screams, they're the demented channeling of Elvis. Now comes a band obviously of the School of Daughters, but they add their own style to it making them a must listen.
Straight up blistering and testosterone driven GRIND from Australia. The drumming in this album at times can get pretty fucking unbelievable by how staggeringly fast blast beats attack your heart beat. This is truly rockin grind thats both fun and brutal. Also, you gotta love that late 80s inspired artwork. (no video)
Artist: Scumguts
Album: Planetary Suplex
Genre: old school grindcore/death metal
There are those certain special bands out there who do absolutely what they want, how they want, and where they want it. This is one of those bands. Its a weird fusion of (at my best ability to label it) avant-garde jazz, and mathcore, with maybe a cartoon noise thrown in. Once I heard the first song I knew I came across something special, why don't you as well?
This is overt psychedelia right here. In that same mind bending aethetic Flying Lotus and The Gaslamp Killer, Kutmah has his own brand on the sound bursting with all kinds of psychedelic revolved influences like tribal percussion, Indian spiritual music, acid soaked hip-hop, jazz etc... This guy is unlike any other and needs to be listened to. I'm sure I don't need to say this, but its grand stoned.
Artist: Kutmah
